Yes, God, God. God don't never change.

Welcome to the Plodcast. I'm Douglas Wilson.

This is episode 343. Can you believe it?

343.

So the thing I want to talk about is the fact that

cliches and truisms are frequently true.

One of our proverbs is that politics makes strange bedfellows, and that has certainly

been turning out to be the case. I'm speaking, of course, of the recent alliance

between RFK Jr and Donald Trump. RF.F.K. was a lifelong Democrat who attempted to challenge Joe Biden in the primary for the Democratic nomination.

And of course he got the treatment that the treatment being a similar treatment that the

Hillary forces applied to Bernie Sanders and which the Biden forces applied to

RFK.

And it wasn't just a matter of politics and pressure,

it was all kinds of dirty politics, lawsuits, things to keep him off the ballot, you know, just lots of

lots of bad stuff. So RFK, I would describe him as a decided liberal, a hard leftist, with a couple of common sense

realizations that made it possible for him to make an alliance with Donald

Trump. So what he has done is he is pulling his name off the ballot in battleground states or attempting to and staying

on the ballot elsewhere and this will keep him from being a spoiler and at the same time will help Trump whom he has

endorsed. Now Trump has never been a principled conservative.

He has, in fact, when he was first elected in 2016,

if the left had only had the sense

to flatter him and sidle up to him, things would have gone a lot differently.
